About The Guardian System
The Guardian device is implanted subcutaneously by a cardiologist during a low-risk, outpatient surgical procedure. The Guardian’s proprietary algorithm uses machine learning to establish a patients baseline then continuously records the heart’s electrical activity, 24/7, detecting and alerting for heart attacks.  The Guardian device provides a more effective diagnosis of a life-threatening event when compared to patient symptoms alone.1
